Sail, an Uncommon card
A sail is a tensile structure, which is made from fabric or other membrane materials, that uses wind power to propel sailing craft, including sailing ships, sailboats, windsurfers, ice boats, and even sail-powered land vehicles.

The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- Sails may be made from a combination of woven materials, including canvas or polyester cloth, laminated membranes or bonded filaments, usually in a three- or four-sided shape.
- A sail provides propulsive force via a combination of lift and drag, depending on its angle of attack, its angle with respect to the apparent wind.
- Apparent wind is the air velocity experienced on the moving craft and is the combined effect of the true wind velocity and the velocity of the sailing craft.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Sail article was read about 43,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 78 and blocks with 92: each hit it takes is cut by 37 %.
How to get Sail
Open packs. Each pack holds five cards drawn from real Wikipedia articles, the rarest last, and the fifth card is always Rare or better. The odds are shown in the game. A free pack arrives every hour and two can wait, and the Coins you win in duels buy more packs.
